New Delhi, Sept 13, 2025 – The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Saturday said that conditions are becoming favourable for the withdrawal of the Southwest Monsoon from some parts of West Rajasthan around September 15.

According to the IMD, the western end of the Monsoon trough is running near its normal position, while the eastern end is south of normal. A low-pressure area persists over the westcentral and adjoining northwest Bay of Bengal and the north Andhra Pradesh–south Odisha coasts. It is expected to move west-northwestwards across south Odisha, adjoining north Andhra Pradesh, and south Chhattisgarh within two days.

In addition, multiple cyclonic circulations are influencing weather patterns — over southwest Bihar and adjoining Jharkhand, over central Assam, over northeast Rajasthan, and along trough lines extending from South Interior Karnataka to the Gulf of Mannar and from the low-pressure area to South Maharashtra.
